Good morning, Dayton.

Dayton Woman's Club and local female-owned businesses celebrate Women’s History Month by hosting community events that show decades of support and new ideas for care and food.

Club leader Margaret Kruckemeyer and business owners Megan Hudson and Liz Valenti said the efforts will keep traditions alive and welcome everyone — a move to empower local women.

On March 15, strong storms knocked down trees, power poles — and power lines — across the Miami Valley, including a tree on Wicklow Place in Dayton.

Federal funding cuts and job losses are hurting Dayton projects as local leaders see millions in lost funds for an I-75 exit, road work, and a childcare center—job cuts in Ohio have risen sharply from 2024 to 2025.

Ohio lawmakers have formed a government efficiency caucus to tackle these changes while plans for a DOGE dividend remain uncertain.
